    About this role

    Artsy and Artnet are hiring a Senior Account Executive to grow and manage a portfolio of gallery partners across our full product suite. You'll manage a book of 150+ galleries and report to your regional Sales Lead.

    You'll own retention and growth for your portfolio, renewing subscriptions, identifying expansion opportunities, and ensuring partners see meaningful value from the products they purchase. You'll sell across Artsy gallery subscriptions, the Artnet Gallery Network, advertising, the Artnet Price Database, and new products and initiatives as they launch.

    This is a senior, commercially driven role that requires strong ownership, sound judgment, and operational excellence. You'll be expected to independently manage your revenue targets, navigate complex negotiations, and proactively identify opportunities to offset revenue risk through growth elsewhere in your portfolio. Success requires balancing high-volume account management and administrative

    responsibilities with thoughtful, personalised customer engagement. You'll use Salesforce, Looker, AI, and automation tools to streamline workflows, maintain exceptional data hygiene, and create more capacity for meaningful, human-focused client relationships.

    Beyond delivering your own results, you'll contribute to a collaborative, ego-free team culture by sharing your expertise, successes, and learnings to help those around you succeed.

    What You'll Do

    Own retention and revenue growth for a portfolio of 150+ gallery partners, independently managing renewals, upsells, and expansion opportunities to achieve quarterly targets.

    Sell bundles and multi-product solutions across Artsy and Artnet, including new products and initiatives as they launch.

    Build a deep understanding of each gallery's business, using consultative discovery to recommend solutions aligned with their needs, goals, and financial circumstances.
